New Dog Bed?

I made Eva a new bed hoping that by doing so I could get both her and Walle to quit sleeping on the bed.  The girls thought it was a great big pillow and had a blast laying on it while they watch t.v. and played with dolls.

You can see how big I made the bed.  Eva is a big dog.

I just loved this picture.  Katy has started grabbing your face if you are not listening to her.  They were playing so very cute together.  Love it!!!  Then Eva, wondering why they won't let her on her bed. :0)

Caught Katy

I just happen to peek over the couch and saw Katy brushing the barbie's hair.

Now when I take her picture she has got to say "Cheese!"  Doesn't make the best picture.  She doesn't like waiting for the flash.

But she is super cute!  Love that she is growing up.  Sad about it too.  I want her to stay little forever!

Fabric

I have needed to do this for a while now.  Go through all my fabric I have down stairs.  I have a lot of friends having babies this spring and summer and I wanted to see what I had before I could talk Nate into letting me go to the fabric store. 

I don't think I'll be allowed to go anymore.

These three bags are full of lace, interfacing and notions.  Yep, you ever need lace, you know where to find it.

 This bag is just scraps to small to do much with but just enough to do flowers and bows and little odds and end projects.  Its stuffed.

I found so much fun stuff that I don't know where to start!  One at a time. :0)

Pioneer Project

Tucker had to make something with out using electronics.  He wanted to make muffins and we have found some really good recipes lately.  I had to take pictures as proof that he did all the work. 

He got to take the finished product to school today for all the kids to have a taste.  I think they turned out well.  I think we will be making more this weekend.

Big Girl Bed

Look who gets to sleep in a big girl bed tonight. :0)  Nap time worked.  Even if she just slept for an hour and woke up to play with Barbies.

Powell Family Cabin Trip

I am a SLACKER.  I have one picture from the cabin.  One!  And it just shows what Katy did.  Oh well.  I have to give myself a break because I have had the cold from ...  well, you know where from.  But I really wanted to remember all the fun things that went on at the cabin.  It might be awhile before we go back.

We went up Friday and the weather was wonderful!  There was a ton more snow than a month ago.  As people started showing up, the kids didn't even come in.  They just got right to sledding and playing in the snow.  All the kids had such a blast!  The snow was great and they just love hanging out with all the cousins.

The whole trip was so much fun!  There were card games, sledding, snow fort building, Dora watching, sledding, card games and more Dora watching.  We had 5 little girls up there that the only thing we could get them to do was watch Dora.  I'm so very Dora'd out.  To bad my Katy was one of the worst ones.  I see a Dora birthday theme coming up in a week or so.

We really had such a great time.  I love hanging out with everyone although we did miss Heidi, Justin and Devin.  All the grandkids were up there Sunday.  All 18 of them.  It makes it hard when the adults are out numbered.  But easier when the kids all get along.

We are so lucky to have such a great family and to enjoy spending so much time together.  No one wanted to leave.  I can't wait til we hang out again.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Look what I woke up too.

There is a benefit to Nate working nights.  He can be sneaky. :0)
